Very Cool

5/5

The safari was great! We went to the Maasai Mara Park in a comfortable car with an experienced driver! We saw a lot of animals, especially zebras, buffaloes, giraffes, and gazelles! There were fewer lions and cheetahs, but we still saw them! We spent the night in a comfortable campsite with breakfast! In the evening, we went to a Maasai village! On the last day of the excursion, we went to the city of Nakuru and Lake Nakuru, where we also went on a safari... We saw the same animals, plus flamingos! We really enjoyed the tour, we recommend it to everyone!

Wonderful wildlife

4/5

We had a very nice safari. Elephants and flamingo sightings were especially delightful. Our guide Shaddy was really wonderful. We had planned a full day safari. As it turned out during our safari we got a message from our airline saying ours flight that night was cancelled, rescheduled for the following morning. We had been in Madagascar for two and a half weeks, were on our way home to the USA. Shaddy found us a hotel near airport with a late night restaurant and a shuttle. He settled us in before he left us. He went above and beyond.

We did the trip to Kenya in September to see the great migration. However, we couldn’t see the migration, but our Safari driver helped us to see all the big five and much more.
The stay in the premium tent was amazing.

Magnificent - a beautiful country and we always felt safe.
Overall rating
5/5

I booked and everything ran like clockwork. I trusted Maria's advice on the Safari Lodge which I knew was going to be the highlight of our trip and our 4 nights at Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge exceeded our expectations. Our first day was wet so we couldn't go off road, but still saw numerous animals including lions and rhinos close to the road. We ended up seeing the Big 7, i.e. the Big 5 plus cheetahs and wild dogs. The only downside was the expectation of generous tipping. In my view, I had already paid a significant amount in the first place, however our Ranger, Tracker & Waiter were exceptional so we followed the tipping guidelines that were on display in our room. The accommodation was first class as was the food.

Fabulous! Cuan was amazing and organised a marvellous safari holiday for us.
5/5

We have used Ubuntu Safaris before (4 years ago) and it was a great experience. This time we embarked on a 21 days of safaris which included a 4-night stay on the ROVOS train (5-star and totally amazing!!), travelling from Pretoria to Victoria Falls. We had safaris arranged in Amboseli National Park, Tarangire National Park and the Serentgeti (saw the great migration - thousands of animals). The transport with guides was arranged perfectly and our guide/driver in each area was totally wonderful - so informative, professional and friendly. Everywhere we went, we were met on time and did not have to worry about anything. It really helped to make it a relaxed and enjoyable trip. We felt safe at all times and only had to worry about what to take a picture of next! We saw the big 5 - we were so excited. Our driver/guide knew all the best places to go and spotted animals and birdlife we would have missed ourselves. The accommodations throughout the trip were great. We had fabulous meals and service everywhere we went - even in the tented camp in the Serengeti. Communication was excellent - we were well informed before and during the trip. Cuan thought of everything and was very patient and thoughtful sorting out what we really wanted. All in all, a faultless trip. Can't recommend highly enough. Definitely value for money - worth every penny for fabulous lifelong memories and 6,000 photos!

An Unforgettable 3-Day Safari!
5/5


We had the most incredible 3-day safari and honestly couldn’t recommend the experience enough! From the breathtaking landscapes to seeing so many amazing animals up close, it was an experience we’ll never forget.

A huge shoutout to our amazing guide, Frank!️ Frank was absolutely fantastic from start to finish — so knowledgeable, friendly, patient and genuinely passionate about what he does. He went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible experience, always getting us into the perfect spots and teaching us so much along the way.

Frank made the safari even more special and was an absolute pleasure to spend the three days with. We were so lucky to have him as our guide!

Thank you for an unforgettable adventure

Ask for Frank — you won’t be disappointed!️️️️️

Good choice
5/5

A few days ago, my friends and I climbed Kilimanjaro with Nafika Tours, and I couldn't be happier with our experience!

The company provided everything we needed to feel safe and comfortable throughout the trek. Communication was excellent. We were always well informed about the plan for each day, and there was flexibility to adjust it when needed. The food was also really tasty, which is especially important at this altitude!

The entire team was wonderful and did an amazing job, but I'd especially like to give a shoutout to a few people we had the most contact with: Justin and Frank, our guides, and Adam, our head waiter.

Justin and Frank were great guides. Throughout the trek, we had plenty of opportunities to chat with them and learned a lot about Kilimanjaro, Tanzania, and local life. They were always happy to answer our questions, which made the experience even more interesting and enjoyable.

Adam helped us with everyday things like refilling our water bottles and preparing warm water for washing. I got a bit sick during the trek and mentioned to him that I had run out of tissues. For the rest of the trip, he made sure to bring me a few extra napkins with my morning hot drink.

I can't recommend Nafika Tours highly enough! I'm sure that when I return to Tanzania to explore its other national parks, Nafika Tours will be the first company I contact.

Wild Wings arranged a trip of a life time!
5/5

Clare at Wild Wings was a fantastic concierge for us. We wanted to do a week long safari in the Okavanga Delta in Botswana and she arranged everything. Flights in and out, two fabulous camps. She made the excellent suggestion that we do 3 days in a water-based safari camp Camp Okavango and then 3 days in a jeep based camp Camp Moremi. At both camps the guides were excellent, the food was gourmet level and the staff was attentive and friendly. We had the trip of a lifetime.

Kentau Safaris exceeds in creating the best safari experience through professionalism and passion.
5/5

Our group of 4 had chosen Kentau Safaris back in May of 2026. Ever since selecting them the experience was nothing short of wonderful. Prior to visiting in September, any questions that we had regarding travel requirements, packing list, and what to expect on the safari were answered promptly by Dominic. He helped us customize our itinerary to match what we wanted to see and ensured that our group was well prepared for our week long visit to Kenya.

Once we arrived in country, we were picked up early for the beginning of our week long adventure. Our guide Douglas was excellent. From the moment he picked us up, you could tell he was passionate about showing us not only about the animals, but also about his country and was more then happy to explain any questions that we had along the way. He was just as excited as we were when we saw all the different species of animals.

Our itinerary consisted of 7 days visiting three different Kenyan locations, Amboseli National Park, Lake Naivasha, and the Maasai Mara. All three of these locations were very unique in their own way. The backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro with elephants in Amboseli is still one of my favourite backdrops anywhere in the world. With our one night in Lake Naivasha, we enjoyed a boat ride around Crescent Island and a really cool walking safari where you could walk with the wild animals (something we all agreed was a really good experience). The magic of the Mara was enjoyed by all, especially with the sun rise from the hot air balloon.

We couldn't have been happier with our selection of tour company. Whatever our expectation was, it was exceeded in every way and just when we thought it couldn't get any better, it always did. To Dominic, Douglas, and the whole Kentau Team....thank you for the incredible experience!

I would definitely recommend visiting with Kentau Safaris to anyone who is thinking of booking an adventure in the future. The work they put in to ensure an adventure of a lifetime is noticed. Next time I visit the area, I will be messaging Kentau first!

Highly professional safari company delivered excellent multi-day excursion around Tanzania
5/5

My experience planning a safari with Philemon, of Aardvark Tours, was excellent. Through careful communication in advance, we planned exactly the trip I wanted, fitting my schedule, and at an appropriate price. Eli, the Aardvark driver and guide during my safari, was superb. He was knowledgeable, friendly, warm, and passionate about Africa and its potential and future. In just a few days in Arusha, Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti National Parks, I saw every species I wanted to encounter, most of them many times over. The mid-range accommodations that Philemon arranged were just right for my tastes and budget. My safari was the trip of a lifetime, and I cannot thank Philemon and Eli enough for their professionalism. I can recommend Aardvark without reservation.
